A chair = Chairs are made so that people can sit down and take a break. (Let this video [2] explain.)

High school = Drama.

A drug = Addicting.

A refrigerator = You keep checking, but nothing ever changes.

Twitter Is Like . . .

Having a conversation with yourself = And hoping that someone else will join in.

High school = Drama. Again.
